Brands like Christian Louboutin, Jimmy Choo and Manolo Blahnik have become such a big part of popular culture that it’s no surprise that most of us, myself included, own a pair or two from these veterans. But owning shoes beyond these classics brings diversity and makes for a more well-rounded collection. The new year is always an exciting time to predict the newest batch of emerging shoe designers, and all of the brands below have something to offer the luxury footwear market. We’ve mentioned all of these brands before, but now we are looking more closely at why they will likely become more entrenched in the footwear scene in 2015.

What’s the best Christmas weather ever? When the piles of snow have already dropped, the sun is shining bright and the sky is as blue as the ocean. Manolo Blahnik has released a series of new shoes to celebrate the Christmas (and New Year), they are all in blue and drop-dead gorgeous.

Seven models is going to make you fall in love, the first pair are amazing cobalt blue pumps; they are shiny, classy and elegant. Christmas will end tomorrow and we are looking forward to New Year. If you are going to a party and your dress is going to be blue, there’s no better way to match than these luxurious pumps.

The next shoes that we love are made from powdery blue suede and embellished with silver brooch on the toe. It’s perfect if you love grown-up things. And yes, even blue flats are on the delicious menu.
